Respuesta :
you have to combine liked terms. the answer is -5x- -1, which is essentially -5x+1 because two negative is a positive

Hey there!
(3x - 6) - (8x + 5)
= 3x - 6 - 8x + 5
COMBINE the LIKE TERMS
= (3x - 8x) + (-6 - 5)
= -5x + (-11)
= -5x - 11
Therefore, your answer: -5x - 11
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
